Therizinosauria Cladogram

["Øyvind M. Padron" <gorgosaur@hotmail.com>]

First i must thank those who sent me therizinosaur image material, and allso 
refresh my request for more material, if you have. I especially seek 
_Segnosaurus galbinensis_ material (not _general_ therizinosauroid 
material), and _Erlikosaurus andrewsi_.
If anyone got any images of the Enigmosaurus pelvis, that'd be great.

I have worked out a cladogram sketch, based on what i have got till now. The 
cladogram is mainly based on pelvic structures, neck vertebrae, and in 
extreme cases, claws.

Enigmosaurus and Chilantaisaurus has been excluded due to my lack of 
knowledge to those species.
Tell me what you think, and please send me any photographs/diagrams if you 
got.

Thanks in advance
